8. A EVMS of our Cookie Baking Process
Our “Plan”
40 cookies per batch
5 batches per hour (200 cookies per hour)
Schedule: 5 hours to make 1,000 cookies
Budgeted cost per cookie –$0.05
Total Budget = $50.00
Analysis after One (1) Hour of Baking We!ve Made...
150 edible cookies –some were burnt, some hit the floor, the kids ate some, and fed some to the dog.
Actual cost of ingredients after one hour (ACWP) = $9.00
After One Hour of Making Cookies
Spending Plan / Baseline (BCWS) = $10.00
Earned Value / Accomplished Work (BCWP) = 150 cookies X $0.05/Cookie = $7.50
Actual Spending / Actual Cost (ACWP) = $9.00
Schedule Variance (SV) = BCWP –BCWS = –$2.50 (we!re behind schedule)
Cost Variance (CV) = BCWP –ACWP = $7.50 –$9.00 = –$1.50 (we!re over budget)
Schedule Performance Index (SPI) = BCWP / BCWS = 0.75 (we!re running at 75% of planned schedule)
Cost Performance Index (CPI) = BCWP / ACWP = 0.833 (we!re running about 17% over budget)
